Any guess as to what is going on with the Stripers this year? The warming weather was over a month late during which time they raised the lake. Are the shad just behind spawning? Are the shad spawning deeper since there is more cover? Does the larger surface area of the lake have the fish more spread out which is why no one is seeing large groups of stripers busting the surface? Usually the night bite gets going strong in April all the way through June, starting later each night as the water warms. It sounds like the night bite might just be getting started now.
